A work song is a piece of music closely connected to a specific form of work, either sung while conducting a task (often to coordinate timing) or a song linked to a task or trade which might be a connected narrative, description, or protest song. A work song is typically a rhythmic a cappella song sung by people working on a physical and often repetitive task.

The work song is probably intended to reduce feelings of boredom. Frequently, the usage of verses in work songs are often improvised and sung differently each time.
